The Delhi Capitals have signed Madhav Tiwari to their squad as of 2025 for 40 lakhs (INR). Tiwari has not played one game at his home province of Madhya Pradesh before earning an IPL contract, therefore, to get him onto an IPL contract with no domestic experience was quite remarkable. Tiwari is a fast-bowling all-rounder.
During the 2025 IPL season, Madhav Tiwari didn’t play in that season and he only has one match versus MI (Mumbai Indians) but he did not bowl a ball but he did bowl one over and increased interest against Punjab Kings.
The Madhya Pradesh Premier League was the tournament in which Madhav Tiwari made his mark. At that time Tiwari was batting for the Bhopal Leopards. The performance Tiwari produced in this tournament caught the attention of the Delhi Capitals Brass and they selected Tiwari to be part of their roster.
